Peterson1993: says who. All scripts of any website are written whether on note pad or what ever. Those webs you mentioned where created with self made codes and scripts written on notepad or any other text editor and not most webs this days using OSS and the open source script was even written by the supposed great coders..!. If you view the source code, you will hardly believe it was actually written by a human beings but we can all be genius to ourselves if we believe

Many of the stuffs you see while viewing the sources of pages might have been obfuscated (and optimized) by some tools. Almost nobody writes such highly condensed codes (just my opinion).

You can get away with CSS and HTML in notepad in a big firm.

But dude, I can guarantee that if you try coding C++, C#, Java etc in notepad in places at the level of Facebook, Google, Ebay, Amazon etc, you will quickly be shortlisted for sacking for being unable to follow standards, unproductive, difficult etc.

Word! maybe that is why the OP is so obsessed with coding in notepad. Larger firms have little time for esoteric preferences and stick more to Standards-driving tools and technologies that can quickly turn code to profitable products in far less time than your hand-coders in notepad can. that is what Intellisense and other time-saving tools do for ya - @OP get with the programme

Sorry before I put forth my opinionated views, I just want to make a quick inquiry. Are you guys actually talking about Notepad, that useless application on windows or a Text Editor!

Even with those, are you going to use Notepad to compress/pack your CSS and HTML? Oh OK, you will write your own tool for the packing process.
